It's gone from a small plant maybe 4" across to " across. Two basals are now growing. Repotted into a larger pot. I left the original sphagnum & perlite rootball intact and filled in around it with 3:2 perlite : buffered coco peat, with a few foam chips for aeration. Lots of black roots near the bottom of the original rootball, which would often sit in water. ![[BE-4523_2026-07-05a.jpg|300]] ![[BE-4523_2026-07-05b.jpg|300]] ![[BE-4523_2026-07-05c.jpg|300]] ![[BE-4523_2026-07-05d.jpg|300]] ##### 2026-08-23 After repotting into a bigger post.
